    Two Books on Uniforms and Equipment

    I did not know these books existed until last weekend. A display included the one covering Japaneseicon items.

    Titles: Heitai and Deutsche Soldaten. I just now found out there is also one on the Germanicon Luftwaffe.

    Author is Agustin Saiz, published by Andrea Press. 400+ pages.

    These are incredibly beautiful books, my wife even likes them. High gloss pages filled with photos. No book of this type can have every example of everything but these make the attempt. Cameras, boots, watches, knives, weapons, uniforms, canteens, gasmasks, etc. And they aren't that expensive. New about $55-60 dollars, I found used examples in excellent shape for about $20 less.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    More books is better, you have to lay out several to make comparisons...
